Lampard is odds-on favourite to be named as Derby's new manager. So was this an early scouting mission for the former England midfielder? If so, who was he watching?

Striker Marc McNulty and attacking midfielder Tom Bayliss have been catching the eye for Coventry, and both played key roles in the Sky Blues' 3-1 win that saw them book a place in League One next season.

McNulty was named man of the match.

The 25-year-old Scot scored 28 goals in 52 appearances this season including hat tricks against Cheltenham and Grimsby Town.

He joined Coventry on a free from Sheffield United last summer having previously had loan spells at Portsmouth and Bradford City.

Coventry boss Mark Robins has got the best out of McNulty and it is not just the player's goals that catch the eye. His movement off the ball is intelligent and his touch is good.

Bayliss was linked with Derby in January when it was reported that the Rams had two bids for the 19-year-old rejected.

He has progressed through the Sky Blues' Academy and broke into the first team this season, making 32 appearances and scoring six goals.

Jordan Willis also had a good game against Exeter at Wembley.

The 23-year-old started at centre-back and netted his side’s opening goal of the match at Wembley with a superb strike from outside the penalty area.

The goal was his only his second of the season, with his last coming in the FA Cup against Stoke City in January.

Willis started his career at Coventry as a trainee in 2011, and has played 169 games for the club.

Exeter striker Jayden Stockley has also had a good season.

The 24-year-old has scored 25 goals in 48 games during the campaign.

He started his career at Bournemouth and had many loan spells, including one at Exeter before he joined Aberdeen on a free two years ago.

Stockley moved to Exeter for an undisclosed fee last summer.
